After what was a brilliantly organised night at the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium in Tralee recently, the winning recipients of the two Buster Races on the night were on hand in the clubhouse to receive their winning cheques of €500!!!

The winner of the first Buster Race on the night was Sharon Murphy, brother to 1st XV player, John, who was on hand to receive the cheque on her behalf from the Race Night Committee members, William Cremin and Aoife Foley.

The winner of the second Buster Race was Kyle Griffin from Castlemaine, who is pictured alongside his sister, Natasha, a important member of the club’s Under 15’s Girls team. In fact, it was a double celebration for the brother and sister combo, with Natasha picking up An Outstanding Commitment award for her tremendous efforts throughout the season, travelling all the way from Castlemaine to don the black and saffron colours on a weekly basis - a huge commitment to make to say the least.

Well done to both Sharon and Kyle, and indeed, to Natasha as well. ... See more

Munster Juniors finished their Junior Interprovincial campaign with a convincing 41-10 victory over Connacht at Rathcooney yesterday. Well done to Derry O'Connor (Abbeyfeale) & the rest of the team but they will certainly be looking back on this campaign on what might have been, as preparation had not been ideal with weather etc. Read more on the Munster Rugby Website ...

12th SUPER TEN LOTTO WINNERS

Myra Healy was on hand in the clubhouse recently to collect her winning cheque of €2,830 after she became the latest winner of the Club’s Super Ten Lotto Draw, triumphing after seven weeks of action.

Thankfully, people’s enthusiasm for this draw from Ballaugh to Ballymacjordan, Croagh to Cork, Duagh to Dubai, Mungret to Midleton, New Hampshire to New Zealand, saw ticket sales SOAR to high level’s once more, making it the ‘most talked about draw in town’ -something which gives us tremendous pride and satisfaction.

With the last draw being a hugely phenomenal success, we just aren’t gonna sit on our jacksie’s and reminisce about how good it was!!!

GOD NO!!!

We said we NEED to GIVE AWAY MORE MONEY!!!! And that’s what we’re gonna do!!!

With this being the third and final draw of the season, we are taking a break again until the end of August/start of September, when we will be back with a bang for another round of this hugely popular Lotto Draw.

So stay tune and keep an eye out on our Facebook page, Website, emails and in the Weekly Observer for the start date of the 13th Super Ten Lotto Draw.

So be like Myra and get your hands on a Super Ten Lotto ticket now and who knows.....you too could be like her, by picking up a whopper of a winning cheque!!

This lotto is open to everyone, so please feel free to spread the word about this exciting lotto game from the club. For more information regarding the draw, please view our Website regarding the rules or simply contact Conor on 087-1305473 or by email at conorprendiville26985@yahoo.co.uk. Don't miss out on the spills and thrills involved in this game and with every draw increasing in the number of participants, so too does the total winning pot!!

The club would like to announce that we will be having our AGM on Friday 11th May at the Clubhouse at 7:30pm.

This season saw our 1st XV consolidate their status in the the 1st Division of the Munster Junior League, with wins over St. Senan’s, Cobh Pirates, Skibbereen, Galbally, Youghal and a draw with Clanwilliam, ensuring their safety in eighth position on 24 points, in a league that is becoming increasingly competitive with each passing season.

Our Ladies teams once again continue to excel, with a number of victories registered throughout the season, most notably, our Under 13 Girls becoming Munster Cup champions. This type of success should serve as a helping hand in generating interest among young girls and women to take up rugby.

With big numbers in attendance for our Underage and Mini's each weekend, it has by far been one of the most successful seasons in the club's Mini & Underage sections for quite some time, with numbers increasing every season, due to the club's success in recent years.

The foundation for this success however, is dependent on the many volunteers (both male and female) who sacrificed their time to coach these teams. To enable this success to continue, we would welcome any new people (both male and female) to contribute in any capacity within the club, be it coaching, or indeed, be a part of our committee team, making decisions that will shape the future growth of our great club. With the new season fast approaching, new people with fresh ideas are greatly welcomed. If you feel that you can contribute in any manner, please feel free to attend on the night. We look forward to seeing you there.
